PREMIER LEAGUE action returns this weekend after a two-week international break.
Manchester United travel to Brentford on Saturday for their first top-flight clash since their 2-0 win over Everton on March 9.
The Red Devils were in FA Cup action prior to the international break as Erik ten Hag’s side secured a spot in the semi-finals of the competition with a thrilling 4-3 win over bitter rivals Liverpool.
Man Utd will be hoping they can continue the momentum from their huge cup triumph on their Premier League return this weekend as they look to keep pace with the top five.
Meanwhile, Brentford have picked up just one point from their last six games, and as a result, they are worryingly falling towards the drop zone.
The Bees are in need of a huge win on Saturday night to pull them further away from a dreaded relegation dogfight.
